Reporting on
another hike taken recently to Italy to the Lake Como district in May. We
did a six day hike from Brunate to Bellagio hiking from inn to inn organized
for us by Worldwalks of England. They took our luggage ahead each day and
Mavis and I carried a day pack with lunch and water, etc.We were on our own
but had directions for each days trip. The weather was great and the
accommodations were perfect. One of the inns was an aggretourismo (a working
farm) so we had fresh everything for dinner and breakfast. We ended up
spending several days in Bellagio and had a chance to relax and explore the
small towns around the lake by ferry. Here's a picture on top of San Primo
taken just before we descend an almost vertical path down to our last inn
.Fortunately, you can't see the rope attached to my waist with which
Mavis helped me up to the top!! Also attached is a picture of Varano, a
small town across the lake from Bellagio.
